Ceramide signalling
Click the image above or here to open this pathway in the Pathway Browser
In certain cell types, ligand binding to p75NTR leads to ceramide production, which can mediate either cell survival (e.g. in noecotical subplate neurons) or apoptosis (e.g. in oligodendrocytes). Low levels of ceramide are also able to stimulate axonal outgrowth in hippocampal neurons.
